One point in question at the meeting was whether con- sideration is being given to existing agreements between municipalities with regard to housing now occupied or being built, and whether occupancy of units should be based on the needs point system and be con- sidered on a County -wide basis. Also discussed was whether at some future time the seven and one half per cent of any deficit which is presently being paid by local municipalities should become a County responsibility. Mr, Flett agreed to bring up those points for consideration at the next meeting of the Board of Directors of the Authority. The County Executive Com- mittee agreed that the Board of Directors of the Authority, or Mr. Flett if not the entire board, should be invited to attend a meeting again later on, perhaps in the spring when the functions and responsibilities of the Authority will be better established. The Executive Committee has been considering the, possibility of the County establishing a non- profit housing authority for and operated by the County. The matter was deferred for the present time however. The Huron County Housing Authority is under the jurisdiction of the London Branch where J. D. Cook is Branch Manager. The Goderich and Clinton Housing Authorities have been dissolved and the new Authority is now responsible for the whole of Huron County. Stop splatters by inverting a collander over the skillet. G.R.
